Terri Shiavo has been braindead for over a decade. The pretend rumor that she hasn't is a lie perpetuated by Republicans in the media in an effort to create yet another wedge issue of morality. What they, and Terri's family have done, is rob the husband of an incredible sum of money keeping a body without a brain on life support. The vast majority of the brain, including the parts governing higher thought processes, has been replaced by cerebral spinal fluid. The video tapes CNN and FOX show of her muscles twitching exist because muscles twitch. Terri Schiavo not being dead is scientifically impossible, and no miracle will come around to save her now.

Letting the body die from lack of sustenance is not morally wrong to me, since there is no brain to suffer from it. Even if there were, she's under so many drugs she would feel nothing anyways.


She breathes by herself so her brain IS intact.

Medicaid pays for the vast majority of her bills and her husband was awarded 1 million dollars in 1992 due to a malpractice suit, he has been using that to help pay the bills. Her family has been willing to pay for her care for quite some time.

There is no reason they need to starve her.

Dying from dehydration is a nasty and terrible way to go.
